Sorry to dig this up again, I have done a LOT of reading last 4 days and have had minimal success in getting where I want.

After several tries, I am finally at a product thats not anamorphic - the m2v files under D2AVS dir do appear anamorphic when played with VLC but the DVD after the rebuild appear the same as original - anamorphic boxed in a 4:3. Please advice.

I am using the "LB 4:3 to 16:9" option in the rebuilder and the AVS scripts look like below:


#------------------
# AVS File Created by DVD Rebuilder
# VOBID:01, CELLID:01
#------------------
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\DVD-RB\DGDecode.dll")
mpeg2source("C:\DOWNLOADS\DVDRB-TMP\D2VAVS\V01.D2V")
SeparateFields().LanczosResize(720,288,0,36,720,216).Weave()
trim(0,159)
ConvertToYV12(interlaced=true)

I have read posts where people appear to have used FitCD to determine the cropping needed and used a filter script to have success. But I am unsure of the cropping - I tried VirtualDubMod but the cropping numbers appear too large - not sure how those numbers from VirtualDub should translate to AVS.

Any help to accurately determine the cropping and to translate that cropping to AVS script to work with DVD-RB would be greatly appreciated.

If you see the attached screenshots, you could see M2V are 16:9

so, somehow M2V are authored back to original aspect ratio...please advice. perhaps I dont need to re-encode and do away with a ifoedit of some sort? possible?

If you see the attached screenshots, you could see M2V are 16:9 I can also see that it is a torrent download! Please read and follow our forum rules, especially rule 6.
